Hi, my name is Gina and I am originally from South Carolina. I began dance at the very early age of 2 years old and have been dancing ever since! I was a member of a dance company for my local dance studio for many years during which time I competed in many areas of dance….tap, ballet, pointe, jazz(hip/hop), and clogging (yee haw)! During my high school years, I had the pleasure of teaching dance to young children at my local dance studio and community center! Because of my love for dance, I went to Columbia College in South Carolina on a dance scholarship; however, I changed my major to English with a Communications emphasis after my first year!

My love for dance surfaced again when I took a Zumba class with Marcela! I owe her so much to this day for encouraging me to follow my dreams and become a Zumba Instructor! I certified in September of 2007 and have been so passionate about my love for Zumba! As an instructor, I love sharing my love for Zumba with others and hope that they leave my classes loving it as much as I do! My goal is to make the participants feel my energy and have as much fun as I do!

I teach classes at ACAC and Oxygen and Iron Personal Training Studio in Midlothian, VA and have also taught classes at local schools, classes for Girl Scout Troops and other various groups! I have also been involved with many local events in the Richmond area!  

Zumba rocks!!!!!!!
